I had the DS or loop done 2/17/17 I lost 110 pounds in a year. But I also didn’t exercise like I should have. But I’m very satisfied with the results. Do to the switch of the intestines we don’t absorb a lot of calories or necessary nutrients so they feel the long term success is better.

I don’t think it’s a standard to the amount of weight you lose. Every individual is different. It depends on your compliance and determination. Like they all say this is only a tool.

I hope I helped

I’ve gained back much of the weight I lost after my VSG and really I’m interested in this procedure, any additional information is truly appreciated.

I had SIPS 12/11 and was told to expect close to the bypass results. So far so good. I lost 1/2 my excess in less than 3 mos.

Took a 1/3rd out. Sips is both the stomach and the intestines

You basically had a 2 step SADi. The VSG was step 1, and the intestinal bypass was step 2.

I had the single loop (SADi DS) done in Nov 2014 and lost about 150 lbs in 10 months. The VSG takes the weight off, and the bypass keeps it off. It's lower risk and requires fewer Vitamins than a standard DS procedure. I'm not sure about any standard weight loss numbers. I lost 100% of my excess fat and it's still off in year 4.

3 months and lost 90lbs? That's amazing I'm not sure which way to go RNY or sips/mini bypass?? I need to lose 140lbs in under a year!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
